The Final Trick of Funnyman and Other Stories: 20th Anniversary Edition
For more than 40 years, fantasist Bruce Taylor has been entertaining readers all over the world with his masterful blend of surrealism and magic-realism.
Now these short stories--published in such respected venues as New Dimensions, Twilight Zone, and Pulphouse--have been reprinted in a special Twentieth Anniversary Edition of The Final Trick of Funnyman and Other Stories. From the vaguely sinister adventures of Mr. M. to the "Bradburyesque" boyhood exploits of Edward, Taylor's tales showcase an imagination at once intense and gentle, absurd and cutting.
